The best of both worlds: foammelt & clearmelt
Perfection in structure and design from a single mould and a single machine
Automotive interior components today often have to combine two worlds: high structural function and sophisticated decorative surfaces. By combining foammelt (physical or chemical foaming) and clearmelt (PUR flooding in the mould), ENGEL presents a solution that fulfils precisely this requirement – and does so in a single, fully integrated manufacturing step. This process integration enables high-strength, low-warpage functional parts with a visually flawless Class-A surface. Additional components, films or painting processes become unnecessary.

35 Years of ENGEL Tie-bar-less Technology
The Evolution of One of the Injection Moulding Industry’s Pioneering Innovations
When ENGEL first unveiled a tie-bar-less injection moulding machine at the K trade fair in Düsseldorf in 1989, the reaction was mixed: technical fascination on one hand, open scepticism on the other. At that time, few would have predicted that this “revolutionary” design would evolve into one of the most successful technologies in injection moulding machinery. Today, 35 years later, ENGEL looks back on more than 85,000 tie-bar-less machines delivered worldwide – and continues to drive this innovation forward with a consistent focus on customer needs. At this year’s K 2025, ENGEL is presenting a world première: a new electric tie-bar-less injection moulding machine.
ENGEL at K 2025
Efficiency, precision and AI – solutions for the future of plastics processing

The trade fair presentation focuses on industry-specific injection moulding solutions that enable companies to manufacture more efficiently, precisely and flexibly. ENGEL will showcase its technologies and solutions in practical operation – from the use of artificial intelligence in the running injection moulding process to highly integrated production cells for the automotive, medical, technical moulding and packaging sectors. Visitors are invited to gain a comprehensive overview of future-proof applications at ENGEL’s stand in Düsseldorf – and to witness the world premiere of a new electric tie-bar-less injection moulding machine.
